Police Thursday were investigating an overnight shooting in south Fulton County that left a man dead.

Officers responding to an 11:56 p.m. call of shots fired on Hilltop Way found a man dead in the driveway of a home in a neighborhood off Cascade Palmetto Highway.

“At this time, there is no motive, suspects or arrests,” Fulton County police Cpl. Kay Lester told The Atlanta Journal-Constitution in an email just before daybreak Thursday.

Police have not released the man’s name or said if he lived at the home.
